We have camped here many times and have always enjoyed ourselves. Because it is right off a highway it can be a little noisy but the "A" sites are far enough away to be a bit quieter. The restroom and showers are well kept and offer softened water for your pleasure. They do not allow any wood to be brought in but they do sell firewood. They have a very good variety of activities including a beach for both kids and adults alike. They sometimes change their prices during the season so be aware of what you agreed to pay when you made your reservation.

This place is right by I-65, a major interstate to Chicago. Very busy, and very noisy. Don't plan on sleeping much. NO REFUND of money. They make you pay ahead, because they know once you get there, you wont want to stay. Couldn't get wood with late arrival.

Despite the GS ratings and the high premium price, this was a very disappointing park. The roads and pad were full of holes and very rough poorly maintained. The advertised Wi-Fi did not work. Only available by going to the office according to the staff worker. . As in other reviews, the noise was very loud due to being next to an interstate highway.

Very close to highway so noisy. Price for full hookup about $42. Pleasant people. Nice body of water, but too cold when we were there. Bathroom ok, but only one small one and far away from us. No fire rings in pull-throughs.

I returned to this campground for a second stay since it was the right distance for the day’s travel. Everything was fine except there was no WiFi at my site (A37). This was known before I arrived but I was not told about it until I questioned why. No consideration was offered for the disappointment.
